Re: Help! My doors keep freezing shut.

This is happening to me too already, and it's just hovering around freezing here. There were a couple of days when it got down to about -4 or -5C, and they were frozen tight. Pain in the ass.

I don't know what's causing it, but I still had a lot of static on the ride home last night. Going to have to try a noise filter to see if it helps.
